Patriotic is the theme of challenge 223 on the Cute Card Thursday Blog. Oh my goodness, this was so difficult…LOLFirst of all I had to decide which country I am doing my card for: Switzerland, where I am living now, or Austria (where I spent the first 27 years of my life).

The final decision was Autria, because 5 years in Switzerland can’t replace 27 years in Austria. I guess 10 more years in Switzerland and this will change :)Great, this problem was solved, but there was another one. Which colours should I use for my card. When it comes to patriotic, most people go with the national colours. But red-white (for Austria) wasn’t very inspirational for me.

The sentiment “I am from Austria” is the title of a song by Rainhard Fendrich. It is called the inofficial national anthem of Austria. It still gives me the heebie-jeebies, when I am listening to it :)

Seems like Henry does it well on every challenge they come up with, even such a hard challenge as this. He fits perfectly to the wholesome. Lovely card with a bit of vintage, STUNNING this one !! Hugs, Marion

WOW!!!! What a cute card. I really love the Summer kit. That stamp is just so sweet. The little piano man. I first thought it was suppose to be Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart you had made!! :) The colours are soo cute.
